And some Super bonus facts...

The priciest tickets to Super Bowl I, which was played on January 15, 1967, cost $12. Adjusted for inflation, that's the equivalent of about $89 today. And even at that bargain price, the event still didn't sell out.

I always called them "Silent but deadly" There's nothing better in life than to let one of those babies slide out and sit back watching the horrific vomit inducing air biscuit slowly invade another's space and the violent reactions that ensue shortly therafter! 🤣 I just don't like it when the dog or the 2 cats do it which is actually worse than anything I could possibly muster up!! 🤢🤮🤬

Your fact of the day for today, Pi Day, March 14th (also Einstein’s birthday)...
